    Other Forum? What "other forum?" I didn't know there were other forums......

    BTW -- Where can a 14 year old legally own a .44 cal. revolver?

    Try the "Search" function. Make sure to put your search term in quotes. EXAMPLES: "tinder" or "fire starter" There are several posts/threads on this topic.

    Is that a question to help you or a quiz for us?

    PS: I think if you search deadfall the answer is there

    Okay, so you're saying what, Ken? Use the search function? Or should I use the search function? Not quite sure what you're referring to.

    Also, jagjj, if it doesn't offend your young, manly sensibilities, tampons are a great tinder. Just saying.....
